Quicktime Streaming - embed RTSP in a webpage
Forgive my ignorance - I'm working on my first Mac Server and haven't done any video streaming stuff at all. I'm trying to put an RTSP feed into a web page and found the following code on one of the discussion threads (code at bottom)...
My problem - while the controls show up (with the poster), they disappear the moment I start to run the video in the browser - otherwise the video runs great - as long as I 'hint' it - which I need to do in Quicktime 7 Pro (X doesn't seem to have the option). Ironically, I need to 'hint' the video on my Windows 7 box - because of the noted Quicktime X issue. Any suggestions re the code below and/or the hinting would be hugely helpful. Thanks!
